Very nice! Why is the Trigger spitting, is this normal for them?

 

[Myteemouse]

Well some do. And he has an attitude problem
some actually grunt like pigs you can hear through the tank.
they are cool animals!
The flame wrasse pair are super cool and way mello.

Nice fish. I got a pair of flame wrasse from Les, they are awesome. That blue throat is great too. I don't usually see them that nice.

those are nice, that trigger is way cool and the wrasses are very nice. i bought a flame a long time ago and it did the leap the first night. i was quite bummed, i didn't know what notorious jumpers they were back then

Very nice trigger, love how the colors are so pronounced. I have a male as well, but his colors aren't so bright. However, on my new tank build, I'll be adding a female, so I hope the male will brighten his colors back up.

Love those flames too, I have a trio coming on Friday.

I thought those wrasses were gorgeous, then saw the trigger- very nice pickups!

And yea, triggers, puffers, and other invert eaters spit to blow sand off any buried inverts before nailing them, they'll also use it as a defensive method. Heck, even my dwarf lion was spitting at me the other day when I put her in a specimen container when i was working on the tank. She got upwards of a foot of distance, which is impressive considering she's about 3-4 inches...


Again, very nice pickups Mr. Mouse!

thanks guys I love them.. The BLue on the blue jaw is AMAZING and he's so thick JUST a beast..
The flame wrasses are small so they got lots of growing to do which I love.
